第五週 • 綱目
神對約伯的心意—使好人成為神人
讀經:伯一1、8,二3、9,二七5,三一6,四二5~6
週 一
壹 聖經六十六卷書只說到一件事—神在基督裏作為那靈,要將祂自己分賜到我們裏面,作我們的生命、性情和一切,好叫我們能活基督並彰顯基督—弗三16~17上,腓一21上:
一 這該是管制我們生活的原則—約六57。
二 在實際的一面,這該是今天作我們享受的生命樹—啟二二14。
週 二
貳 約伯是一個好人,表現他自己的完全、正直和純全—伯二七5,三一6,三二1:
一 完全與裏面的人有關,正直與外面的人有關—一1。
二 約伯是一個純全的人;純全是完全和正直的總和—二3、9,二七5,三一6:
1 關於約伯這個人,純全是他這人的總體表現。
2 在性格上,約伯是完全、正直的;在道德上,他有高標準的純全。
三 約伯在積極一面敬畏神,在消極一面遠離惡事—一1:
1 神造人不僅是要人敬畏祂、不犯錯;神按着自己的形像,照着自己的樣式造人,乃是為叫人彰顯祂—創一26。
2 彰顯神比敬畏神和遠離惡事更高。
3 約伯在他的完全、正直和純全上所達到的全是虛空,並沒有完成神的定旨,也沒有滿足神的願望;因此,神對約伯有愛的關切—伯一6~8,二1~3。
四 惟有神知道約伯有一個需要—他裏面沒有神;因此,神要約伯得着祂以彰顯祂,好成就祂的定旨—四二5~6。
週 三
叁 神的心意是要約伯成為神人,在神的屬性裏彰顯神—二二24~25,三八1~3:
一 神將約伯引進另一個範圍,就是神的範圍,使約伯能得着神,而不是在他完全、公義和純全上的成就—四二5~6。
二 神對約伯的心意,是要銷毀他,剝奪他在最高標準的道德上,所達到並成就的完全和正直—三一6。
三 神的心意是要拆毀那在自己的完全和正直裏天然的約伯,使神能建立一個有神的性情和屬性,得更新的約伯—一6~8,二3~6。
週 四
四 神的心意是要使約伯成為屬神的人,充滿了作神具體化身的基督,成為神的豐滿,好在基督裏彰顯神—提前六11,提後三17。
五 神在約伯身上施行剝奪和銷毀,好將他拆毀,使神能有一個根據和一條路,用神自己重建約伯,使他成為神人,在生命和性情上與神一樣(但無分於祂的神格),好彰顯神—弗三16~21。
週 五
肆 神在基督裏,構造到人裏面,人也構造到神裏面;神與人調和在一起,成了一個實體,稱為神人—太一21、23,路一35,多二13,提前二5:
一 許多神人,就是神的眾子,乃是第一個神人基督的擴增、複製、再制和繼續—約十二24,來二10,羅八29。
二 神人乃是有分於神的生命和性情的人,因此,在神的生命和性情上,成為與神是一,藉此彰顯祂—約三15,彼後一4,林前六17。
三 神人由神所生,成為神的兒女,有神的生命和性情—約一12~13,三6:
1 神人有屬人與神聖的兩種生命,以及人性和神性的兩種性情。
2 神人乃是生命人—約壹五11~13,羅八2、6、10~11。
3 神人乃是金人—出二五11,彼前一7,啟三18,二一18下。
四 神人由神所構成,有神作其生命、生命的供應和一切;因此,神人是人又神,是神又人—弗三16~17上。
五 神人乃是新造,以及在基督裏神的義—林後五17、21。
週 六
六 神人用全人(就是出於全心、全魂、全心思並全力)愛主—可十二30。
七 神人不信靠肉體,否認己,並操練靈活基督—腓三3,太十六24,提前四7,腓一21上。
八 神人是有神的話,吸入神的氣之屬神的人—提前六11,提後三16~17。
九 神人領悟自己不是獨立的個體,乃是團體神人—基督的身體,一個新人—的一部分—林前十二12~13,弗四16,西三10~11。
Week Five
God’s Intention with Job— That a Good Man Become a God-man
Hymns: E538
Scripture Reading: Job 1:1, 8; 2:3, 9; 27:5; 31:6; 42:5-6
§ Day 1
I.
The Bible of sixty-six books is for only one thing—for God in Christ as
the Spirit to dispense Himself into us to be our life, our nature, and
our everything that we may live Christ and express Christ—Eph. 3:16-17a;
Phil. 1:21a:
A. This should be the principle that governs our life—John 6:57.
B. In a practical way, this should be todays tree of life for our enjoyment— Rev. 22:14.
§ Day 2
II. Job was a good man, expressing himself in his perfection, uprightness, and integrity—Job 27:5; 31:6; 32:1:
A. Being perfect is related to the inner man, and being upright is related to the outer man—1:1.
B. Job was a man of integrity; integrity is the totality of being perfect and upright—2:3, 9; 27:5; 31:6:
1. With respect to Job, integrity is the total expression of what he was.
2. In character, Job was perfect and upright, and in his ethics, he had a high standard of integrity.
C. Job feared God positively and turned away from evil negatively—1:1:
1.
God did not create man merely to fear Him and not do anything wrong;
rather, God created man in His own image and according to His likeness
that man may express God—Gen. 1:26.
2. To express God is higher than fearing God and turning away from evil.
3.
What Job had attained in his perfection, uprightness, and integrity was
altogether vanity; it neither fulfilled Gods purpose nor satisfied His
desire, and thus He was lovingly concerned for Job—Job 1:6-8; 2:1-3.
D.
Only God knew that Job had a need—he did not have God within him;
therefore, God wanted Job to gain Him in order to express Him for
the fulfillment of His purpose—42:5-6.
§ Day 3
III. Gods intention was that Job would become a God-man, expressing God in His attributes—22:24-25; 38:1-3:
A.
God ushered Job into another realm, the realm of God, that Job
might gain God instead of his attainments in his perfection,
righteousness, and ntegrity—42:5-6.
B.
Gods intention with Job was to consume him and to strip him of his
attainments, his achievements, in the highest standard of ethics
in perfection and uprightness—31:6.
C.
Gods intention was to tear down the natural Job in his perfection and
uprightness that He might build up a renewed Job in Gods nature
and attributes—1:6-8; 2:3-6.
§ Day 4
D.
Gods intention was to make Job a man of God, filled with Christ, the
embodiment of God, to be the fullness of God for the expression of God
in Christ—1 Tim. 6:11; 2 Tim. 3:17.
E.
Gods stripping and consuming were exercised over Job to tear him down
that God might have a base and a way to rebuild him with God Himself so
that he might become a God-man, the same as God in His life and
nature but not in His Godhead, in order to express God—Eph. 3:16-21.
§ Day 5
IV.
In Christ God has been constituted into man, man has been constituted
into God, and God and man have been mingled together to be one entity,
which is called the God-man— Matt. 1:21, 23; Luke 1:35; Titus 2:13; 1
Tim. 2:5:
A.
The many God-men, the many sons of God, are the increase, reproduction,
duplication, and continuation of Christ, the first God-man—John
12:24; Heb. 2:10; Rom. 8:29.
B. A God-man is one who partakes of Gods life and nature, thus becoming one with God in His life and nature and thereby expressing Him—John 3:15; 2 Pet. 1:4; 1 Cor. 6:17.
C. A God-man has been born of God to be a child of God, having the life and nature of God—John 1:12-13; 3:6:
1. A God-man has two lives, the human and the divine, and two natures, humanity and divinity.
2. A God-man is a life-man—1 John 5:11-13; Rom. 8:2, 6, 10-11.
3. A God-man is a gold-man—Exo. 25:11; 1 Pet. 1:7; Rev. 3:18; 21:18b.
D.
A God-man is constituted with God, having God as his life, life supply,
and everything; thus, a God-man is man yet God and God yet man—Eph.
3:16- 17a.
E. A God-man is a new creation and the righteousness of God in Christ—2 Cor. 5:17, 21.
§ Day 6
F. A God-man loves the Lord with his whole being, that is, from his heart, soul, mind, and strength—Mark 12:30.
G.
A God-man has no confidence in the flesh, denies the self, and
exercises the spirit to live Christ—Phil. 3:3; Matt. 16:24; 1 Tim. 4:7;
Phil. 1:21a.
H. A God-man is a man of God with the word of God, inhaling the breath of God—1 Tim. 6:11; 2 Tim. 3:16-17.
I. A God-man realizes that he is not an independent individual but part of the corporate God-man—the Body of Christ, the one new man—1 Cor. 12:12-13; Eph. 4:16; Col. 3:10-11.
